MANAGEMENT REPORT Dear customers, cooperation partners and shareholders! The management of AS Latvijas pasta banka (hereinafter also the Bank) is proud to announce that the Bank has closed the first half of the year 2013 and successfully retained and enhanced its position and business profile in the local financial market. 2013 started with positive trends in the economy; however, the external environmental risks remain related to future development in the euro zone. Because of decrease in economic growth of main trade partners of Latvia, the Latvian export growth may slow down and its positive effect on the economy as a whole can diminish. Latvian economic development is ensured not only by export but also by demand in the domestic market. The increase of private consumption is determined by gradual improvement of labour market employment growth and labour wage increase. Favourable ratings to the Latvian economy by international lenders and credit rating agencies, confirms that the Latvian business environment stabilizes. It is also acknowledged by the Economic and Financial Affairs Council`s (ECOFIN) decision made on 9 July for Latvia to join the euro zone from 2014. The performance of the Bank as a relatively new (this year marks the 5th anniversary of establishment of the Bank) member of the local financial market is certainly assessed as positive and approves the Bank's ability to meet challenges and operate in all conditions. The core values of the Bank have not changed, namely, honesty honest and fair attitude to all Bank`s clients, professionalism professional team, responsibility high level of responsibility for decisions made, loyalty equal treatment to all the Bank s clients and colleagues, quality convenient and qualitative Banking services to clients and competitiveness of the Bank s services, flexibility the ability to adjust to the needs of the customers, safety the clients can be sure about their deposits and information provided in cooperation with the Bank.

The liquidity ratio is 94.05%, which also exceeds the minimal requirement of 30% for several times as set by the law. Based on the above, it appears that the Bank has all the abilities to successfully continue the implementation of its operational strategy. 3

MANAGEMENT REPORT (continued) Also in the future the important role in the Bank s strategy is to be played by the administration of wealthy client`s funds and products that meet the individual needs of our clients.

NOTE 1 GENERAL INFORMATION AS Latvijas pasta banka (hereinafter the Bank) is a joint stock company registered in the Republic of Latvia and operating according to the laws of the Republic of Latvia and the licence issued by the Financial and Capital Market Commission on 12 September 2008. The registered office of AS Latvijas pasta banka is at Brivibas iela 54, Riga, LV-1011, Latvia. The Bank has the head office and two customer service centres. The core business activity of the Bank comprises local and international payments, attraction of deposits, issue and servicing of payment cards, issue of loans, securities and foreign exchange transactions. According to the Commercial Law of the Republic of Latvia, the general shareholders meeting has a right and duty to decide on the approval of the annual report. NOTE 2 BASIS OF PREPARATION (a) Statement of compliance These interim condensed financial statements of AS Latvijas pasta banka are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union. These interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Bank s financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2012. (b) Going concern The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. The Bank s management have analysed the Bank s financial position, availability of financial resources as well as the impact of the financial crisis on the future operations of the Bank. The bank operates using development strategy based on an assumption that the initial Pasta Banka project is not supported and the initial development strategy cannot be implemented. This strategy will be applied until it is confirmed legally that the initial strategy is or is not feasible. The Bank s strategy is aimed at creating a bank servicing certain customers and developing customised products and service technologies. Monitoring of the Bank s capital sufficiency is performed by: - the analysis in accordance with the Bank's minimum capital requirement calculation procedure set out in the reports at least once a month; - evaluating the significant risks to the Bank to cover the amount of capital required and the amount of capital available for 3-year planning period at least once a year and every month, comparing to the actual Bank's financial performance with planned; - performing an active assessment of the quality and the required provision calculations at least once a quarter. In long-term capital crisis, the Bank's capital crisis management plan predicts to use its capital reserves, attract subordinated deposits or to ask shareholders to raise the Bank's capital. Having analysed the key risks related to the present and potential economic situation in Latvia, the development of the banking industry as well as the change on the Bank`s central office to the Riga centre, the Bank has selected to pursue the following strategy: 12

- As a priority, to offer its services to legal entities, forming the customer portfolio based on customised services; - Along with legal entities, to offer equal customised services also to high-income and ultrahigh income private individuals; - To be present in Latvia, Russia, Ukraine, EEA; - To define as the priority business activity the following: issue and acceptance of payment cards via POS terminals and the Internet, in cooperation with such well-known organizations such as MasterCard, Visa, Tieto, First Data, Global Payment using MasterCard acquiring license to Europe and Visa acquiring license to Europe, thus providing services to Internet marketers across Europe, placement of capital in financial instruments, issuance of credit cards to private individuals, issue of loans to legal entities based on the moderately conservative risk approach, especially financing of current assets and transportation flows; The Bank has set the target capital adequacy ratio of at least 20 per cent for 2013. (c) Functional and presentation currency These financial statements are reported in thousands of lats (LVL 000), unless otherwise stated. The functional currency of the Bank is the Latvian lat (LVL). NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Except as disclosed below, in preparing these interim condensed financial statements, the Bank consistently applied accounting policies in line with those used for the financial period ended 31 December 2012. Income tax expense is recognised in each interim period based on the best estimate of the weighted average effective annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. Amounts accrued for income tax expense in one interim period may have to be adjusted in a subsequent interim period of that financial year if the estimate of the weighted average effective annual income tax rate changes. Interim period income tax expense is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expect total annual earnings, that is, the estimated average annual effective income tax rate is applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period. The interim condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim financial reporting as adopted by European Union. These interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2012 full annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International financial reporting standards (IFRS) endorsed in the European Union.
